Inspiring Resilience in Fearful and Reactive Dogs

By Sally Gutteridge and Dayle Smith

Book Overview

If your dog struggles with fear, anxiety, or reactivity, this book will teach you the essential foundations for creating real, lasting change.

Instead of trying to suppress unwanted behaviours, you'll learn why your dog reacts, what's happening in their brain and body, and how to change the way they feel-because true progress happens when a dog feels safe, not when they're forced to behave.

This welfare-first, science-backed guide will show you how to:

✔️ Recognise and respond to your dog's emotional needs
✔️ Build their confidence and resilience over time
✔️ Reduce fear-based reactions without force or punishment
✔️ Strengthen your bond through trust, patience, and understanding

Packed with practical, easy-to-follow guidance, this book will help you create a calmer, more confident dog while giving you the tools to support them in the way they truly need.

If you want to help your dog feel safe in the world, this is the book for you.
